Description
Belvedere Trading is a leading proprietary trading firm proudly headquartered in downtown Chicago. Our traders work hard to provide liquidity to the market through their market-making activities and are the masters of a diverse set of commodities, interest rates, exchange-traded funds (ETF), and equity index options. From the beginning, we began iteratively investing in our proprietary technology and committing to building our systems from the ground up. Our trading models and software systems are continually re-engineered, optimized, and maintained to stay on top of the industry. This wouldn’t be possible without the dedicated efforts of our technology teams who utilize and perfect our innovative technology solutions.
High-performance proprietary development is the source of our success and competitive advantage at Belvedere, further fueling our passion for performance. We are a team driven by intellectual curiosity, seeking answers that will change not only how we trade in this technological age, but also the future landscape of the trading industry. We place a high premium on defining, developing, and deploying high-performance trading software using a team-based, holistic development approach. We look for passionate team members that excel and their contribution is critical to our continued success.
Belvedere Trading is looking for an FPGA Developer to supplement the team and drive projects that will optimize our options market marking systems. Successful candidates will have a proven track record of success delivering complex FPGA systems on a chip design, possess excellent problem-solving abilities, possess a can-do/self-driven attitude, and have the ability to thrive in a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment.
The ideal candidate is a creative thinker who has had previous experience developing networks, exchange encoding/decoding, and custom logic on the card. Exchange protocol encoding/decoding experience is desirable. Additional experience developing hybrid hardware/software systems communicating over PCIe is also desirable. The successful candidate will direct their own learning, grow their expertise, and pass that knowledge on to other team members.
Women and underrepresented groups frequently apply to jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications.
We encourage you to break that mold and apply. No candidate is perfect; all have a lot to offer.
We welcome your application.
Core Values
The secret to our award-winning culture is our Core Values: Team Belvedere, Me In Team, Own It, Build Rockets, and Passionate Discourse. We live and breathe these values every day.
